The First Cause? Prime Mover Argument
#7
RE: The First Cause? Prime Mover Argument
Well, I was the one that initially mentioned bringing up the topic, but there's nothing to really add on top of what Alex said. He covered it pretty thoroughly.

It's basically just old philosophy that relies on a classical understanding of causality and time, which was tossed out the window when Relativity and Quantum Mechanics hit the scene. It was cutting edge stuff thousands of years ago, but knowledge progresses. I'm sure Newton's still rolling in his grave because of that fact.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
